This equipment is the latest in technology using ULSI integration (Very Large Scale Integration). In addition, the students will have the opportunity to use equipment that is in the market place. The computers will be used in the advanced accounting course and a short unit in the beginning accounting classes. The advanced typewriting and office machines classes will use the equipment with Word Perfect word processing and Lotus 1,2, 3. There is also a business computer applications class that will be using the Word Perfect word processing and Lotus 1,2, 3. The secretarial office lab students will use the equipment for word processing, data base functions, and will also learn the Lotus 1,2,3. The marketing classes also have a unit in business management on the computers. An activity planned for the future is a computer adult education class. For further information concerning this class, contact the vocational office at Wawasee High School in the fall. Many students at WHS will have the opportunity to work with this equipment and receive valuable experience in this area. (Photo by Linda Musselman)

Planning a vacation

July is the month for vacations. We are very fortunate to live in a part of the country where a wide variety of vacation possibilities are available. Camping is an economical way to vacation. This Reporter’s family has had several wonderful trips that never could have been managed without the benefits of camping. We wrote in advance to the State Department of Tourism in states where we were planning to visit and also to local chambers of commerce. We found campground directories and looked for any other information we though might be helpful. We also researched the areas where we were going and areas we would be passing through.

It Happened in —

King Arthur's Town

LAST WEEK a fisherman in a boat in front of this Reporter’s house was most astonished to have a male mallard duck fly right into his fishing line as he cast it out. The hook buried deep in the duck’s leg. The fisherman came on shore where Hubby and several of the neighbors hurried to the rescue. It was no small job to remove the hook but it was removed as gently as possible.« Hubby brought the duck into the house and asked me to call Donna Stucko, our neighborhood wildlife consultant. Have you ever tried to make a telephone call with a large, annoyed, wounded, mallard duck staring you in the face? Anyhow, the call was made arid the duck was taken to Donna where it was treated and released. A happy ending to what could have been a sad story.

20 YEARS AGO, JULY 10,1968 Town Board Members met Wednesday evening at the town hall to outline and develop a budget for the next year. Working with the board was the town attorney, Robert Rasor. He also is working with clerk John Reasoner on an ordinance concerning placement of mobile homes within the town limits. A reception was held in the United Methodist Church Sunday evening for Rev. "and Mrs. John Weeks and children who are the new parsonage family. Nelson Hunt had the opening prayer and Don Nei gave the welcome. Charles Turner had some remarks and introduced Rev. Weeks. A youth center will open on Friday night, July 12, in the United Methodist Church basement. This will be an experiment by adults of the church to help the youth of the community to have a place to go.

Our inquiries were answered with brochures, booklets and pamphlets, all free of charge. By the time we started on our vacation, we would have several campgrounds located in the various areas where we planned to stop for the night, lists of attractions with the hours they were open, prices, etc. All of the pre-planning made it possible for us to save money, not waste time hunting for a place to stay, eliminate in advance sights and attractions we didn’t want to see or that were too expensive and make every minute of our vacation time count. There are many wonderful things to see and do that cost nothing. While vacationing in Virginia, we saw Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown, Carter

THANKS!!! To all of you who participated in the 1988 Wawasee Flotilla we would like to thank you. We hope you had an enjoyable day and will participate another year.

Hall Plantation, George Washington’s home and Thomas Jefferson’s home. We camped in the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains and Great Smoky Mountains. One time we camped for two weeks right on the ocean at Cape Hatteras, N.C., all free of charge. This is the string of islands off the coast of North Carolina frequented by many notorious pirates in the 1700 s and 1800 s. Kitty Hawk, where the Wright Brothers first flew an airplane, and the Virginia Dare Lost Colony are also located near Cape Hatteras, Places we stopped on our way to and from the seashore were: Cincinnati Zoo, Serpent Mounds ancient Indian site in southern Ohio, a Cherokee Indian reservation in Tennessee, Blue Ridge Parkway, mjdseums and the Atomic Energy Museum at Oak Ridge, Tenn. It is a lot of fun to send for summer vacation information in January or February. That gives you plenty of planning time. Nothing much needs to be left to the last minute and that makes Mom’s job a lot easier. It is also easier on Dad to have road maps, a well specified route of travel, places to stop for the night and approximate estimates for expenses, all before the family ever leaves the house. Today’s camping gear is so streamlined you can have nearly all the comforts of home. The secret of packing for such a trip is, “put things inside of other things and don’t waste an inch of space.” For instance, stockings, washrags, and underwear can be stuffed into shoes and boots. Get zippered plastic covers for bed pillows and put each person’s pajamas right in with their pillow. Pack cooking pots full of what ever they will hold. Don’t take clothing that wrinkles easily or has to be pampered. Whatever you do, don’t forget the <£in opener kj •
